TERRIBLE THINGS TO COME TO PASS

Whenever the Mormon priesthood is
driven to a corner and about to meet de-
feat upon some pet project-such an one,
for example, as they are now coddling, the
admission of Utah-they begin to prophesy
dire evil to all who oppose them. This
was the case upon the expulsion from
Missouri it was true of the exodus from
Nauvoo; it was the resort of Brigham
Young when Johnson's troops set out upon
the march to Utah the prophetic dodge
was INDUCED in when General Connor oc-
cupied Fort Douglas, and trained his
guns Salt Lakeward it was the trick of
the Apostles when investigation began into
the Mountain Meadows massacre: and
prophesying of sad times wa1 indule ed in
when Congress resolved to put polygamy
under its heel. Now that the hope grows
faint of pushing Utah into the Union with
two-faced Constitution, that shouts
against plural marriage, but leaves loop
hole for its recognition when the Terri
tory is once a State, Elder Pratt has fore
Swallowed what we must expect, according
to revelation the "Lord" of the Nor
mons, he says, has made to him. In 1891,
New York city is to be swallowed up. In
1892, Boston is 10 be sent to keep it COM
pany, and the next year Albany is to dis
appear from the economy of civilization.
Anarchy is shortly to prevail in the ma
ton, and war is to involve thirty-four
millions of our people in a bloody struggle.
In 1885, Utah is to become a State :;
Joseph, the martyr" is to come out of
the land of the unknown in 1891 Christ
is to accompany him, and the two are to
open the graves and the Mormon saints
are to raise; but only those who have faith
Will be able TO see them.
To prove that the prophecy does not
wholly exclude desolation to the Mormons,
one of their smaller cities is to be de-
stroyed by an earthquake, and half the
inhabitants viii meet death. Butte City,
Montana, is to be destroyed shortly after
ward. While wheat is to be worth six
cents pound in Utah, elsewhere in the
United States bushel Of wheat Will be
worth bushel Of silver. After Boston,
New York and Albany, Carson City, New,
will be shaken down by an earthquake.
The Indian tribes are then to be rallied,
put on war-paint and proceed to lay waste
many places, Lincoln, Neb, being the first.
Earthquakes, attaated by the special anger
of the Lord" are to rack the ribs of
earth. Kings will quake upon their
thrones, and everybody but the Latter Day
Saints is to be supremely miserable. In
view of all which, as peace offering let
Utah be at once admitted to the Union.
Every one who has interfered with them
should withdraw objection, in the hope that
all these dire things may not come to pass.
What wrench to good manners it is to
refrain from prOfane vituperation when we
are told that there are thousands of delnded
Mormons who believe all this insuferable
rot of prophecy."

The great success attending the Placer

very gratifying. 1t has demonstrated that

ducts and the climate of Central and

disabusing the minds Of the incoming tour
lists to the south of much error. That the

THERE was a brutal prize-fght in San
Francisco on Friday night, and no inter
ference by the authorities. No conceal
ments we're made; the police knew it was
to take place, and the rooms named. A
proprietor of an athletic cub loaned its
hall for the disgraceful affair, and faint
attempt was made to give it the character
of an athletic exhibition. The men used
only two-ounce gloves-worse than no
gloves-and one of the roughs was beaten
and battered until he was insensible, and
his face pummeled into a condition that
made him unacceptable. What excuse
the San Francisco authorities can make
for permitting this disgraceful affair to
take place it is impossible to even surmise.
Spasms Of virtue oyertake the metropolis
now and then, and great howl goes up
from the press about twice year against
vice and vicious influences. Yet such ex-
hibitions as that referred to do not appear
to present themselves to The journals of
San Francisco as demoralizing and brutal
izing to the last degree. A community
that tolerates such barbarous sports cannot
hope to purify the social atmosphere by
convicting grand rogue now and then,
while it refuses to prevent slogging, and
catering to the vicious and debased ele-
meDts

THE ROAD TO OREGON.

The excursionists to Oregon over the
completed line of rail between this city
and Portland, returned almost wildly en-
thusiastic concerning the region trayersed
by the road, and filed to the lips with
glowing prophecies of the future the road
is to open up to commerce, and of the set
Element of Northern California and
Southern Oregon it is to promote and ac-
complish Until this excursion was made,
there had not been given to the public
any adequate idea of the magnitude of
the work of building the road, and the
herculean task involved in pushing
through the northern mountains. The
San Francisco Alta, whose editor formed
one of the party, says
The railroad isthe most stupendous construc-
ton IN the world. Its completion is a victory
for civil engineering, the like OF which will not
be duplicated above ground. Those who would
rival il in future must find their field under the
sea and under the land.
And, concerning the Importance of the
road, the Alta adds:
Having conquested and passed the mountains
between the two States, this railway now be-
comes indispensable to the commerce of each.
But, aside from its value as a commercial high
way, it is the most important military road in
the Union. The cost of it, expended in forts
and great guns, would not have prepared one
tenth the protection against an exterior enemy
which it makes available. When the Federal
Government decided to promote it by grant of
lands, il wisely reserved the right as a condi-
ton of the grant TO take the road in any time of
necessity and run 1T without charge as mill
tary highway.
We have frequently, and for years,
"Nlled attention TO the immense import
auce of the road to the northern and CEN
trail sections of the State. Generally, it
has been supposed that the subject was
fully understood, but it is now developing
that even the most sanguine friends of the
road, and believers in its commercial i'm
portance, have not risen to a level with
its real value to California and Oregon.
1t is not going too far, in the light Of
present business calculation to speak of
the line as one of the chief arteries of
trade in the Union. The time will come
when its cars will roll through commune
ties numbering their people by millions,
and be carrier to the commerce of sections
the production of which will surpass, in
variety and extent, any other region upon
the globe.
